the head to tail rule
the head to tail rule
The direction of the resultant of three like parallel forces will be the same as the direction of the original forces. If the forces are all acting in the same direction, the resultant will also act in that direction.
In addition of vector when vector A whose head is joined to the tail of the vector B and then the tail of the vector A is linked with the tail of the resultant vector and the head of the vector B is joined with the head of the resultant vector..... it means the addition of vectors are also defined the head to tail rule..
A resultant on a vector diagram is drawn by connecting the tail of the first vector to the head of the second vector. Then, the resultant vector is drawn from the tail of the first vector to the head of the second vector. The resultant vector represents the sum or difference of the two original vectors.
The simple answer is that you can just sum the forces. To make the math work out, though, you'll need to set up a set of axes (probably already provided) and split the forces into their x and y (and z, if applicable) components using trigonometry. SOH-CAH-TOA. The forces can then be summed.

Yes if you put them "head to tail" and the head of the fourth one points to the tail of the first one the resultant is zero.
You describe the resultant computed using the graphical method by connecting the vectors head to tail. The difference from the tail of the first one to the head of the last one is the resultant vector. To determine resultant vector with the component method you use the formula x(squared) + y(squared) = R (squared).

Vectors are added head to tail by placing the tail of the second vector at the head of the first vector. The resultant vector points from the tail of the first vector to the head of the second vector, forming a triangle. The length and direction of the resultant vector are determined by the magnitudes and directions of the original vectors.
yes it is
yes the resultant of the two vectors can be zero.it can be illustrated by drawing following diagram.a triangle may be considered as a vector diagram in which the force polygon close and the resultant of the three vectors is zero.
When you add vectors graphically you connect them head to tail, keeping their length and direction constant. The difference from the tail of the first one to the head of the last one is the resultant vector. Go to the related link below.
The general rule for adding vectors is to hook them together "head to tail" and then draw in a resultant vector. The resultant will have the magnitude and direction that represents the sum of the two vectors that were added.
